1. I got home from the hospital to the most gorgeous and colourful display of tulips in a stunningly perfect vase. My bestie said she ran into the thrift for a vase and this was the first one she saw. It's perfect with my black lacquer coffee table vignette. I love black accessories.
2. It really hit me coming home from the sterility of the hospital to the warmth of my apartment how amazing my home is. We watched the sky turn pink and then I lit all the twinkle lights and my faux fireplace and some candles and with my new midnight blue wall it was so cozy and I felt so much love for the me that created this sanctuary.
3. It's very weird to look down and not see a giant lump protruding from my stomach right beside my belly button. Even with the dressing and the swelling it is remarkably different and I can take deeper breaths than I could when Sigourney lived in me.
4. It's mid summer hot here like we jumped straight from winter and past the spring rain right into summer and I am living for it. I have a wee tan already and a few nose freckles and it's not even May. I'll take it.
5. There are moments I wonder what I will do with myself when my purge/redecoration is complete because I am sooooo close to being done and then I remember that I have grown up things like back taxes and dentist appts to fill up my time with.
6. I want to buy myself a goodbye sigourney prezzie but I don't know what to buy which is rare for me.
7. I just asked my magic 8 ball if this enchantment I am feeling for all things - my home, my work, my relationships - will continue and it said "outlook good".
8. I just read that Nancy Pelosi thanked George Floyd for his sacrifice of his life in the name of justice and I cannot believe how fucking stupid she is to say that. It wasn't a sacrifice. It was murder.
9. Asha made me a surgery care package and included a crystal that she charged for me. I love the woo shit and texted her that and she texted back I work with crystals and now I want to know more.
10. I really want to take a bubble bath but no baths for a few days.
